yea i agree with noon, all the other times i see those rims on cars they look really nice. i was even considering it at one point in time. but now seeing them on a g.. im kinda dissapointed.. i dunno what it is.. maybe because the car isn't low enough .. i just dont know. its is also wierd to use the 275 on a 10 1/2 inch rear.. i had 275 on mine and they were stretched a bit.. i ended up going with the 285/30 and it worked out great... are you sure yours are 10.5 in the rear because it doesn;t look like it..

 

well im pretty sure that mod was joking so i'll take a little poke too (just to show that he didnt mean it).... man... F 350z owners! LOL nice car man gotta love the look.... how are the basics? Camber correction? whAT IS your alignment lookin like? I want to get basics and MAYBE go a little lower than u with 19's but am hesitant because i dont wanna have to spend another 500 on top of the basics to get look i want withotut going through tires every 5000 miles

Wickedik: Yes my rear wheels are 10.5.

Raznips: Well, long story with the MOD, but still don't think there was a purpose for him to post. Thanks for the compliment. I think the basics are great for the money. Camber correction got it down to -1.9. I don't have my alignment sheet with me, but it's really not that bad. All coilovers works the same (in regards to lowering the car) depending on the type of ride/performance you want. For the basics, it's good enough for me. No matter what height you go with, you're going to have tire wear problems(camber). You could get camber and toe arms for around $800 that will fix the problem. The tire wear depends on your driving too. If you drive normal, I'm sure you'll get more then 5,000 miles on your tires.

 

i guess i should respond so that there's no speculation...

the smiley face does mean that I was joking...

i will publicly apologize if you took it the wrong way.

I have always felt there was a friendly rivalry between G-owners and Z-owners, so I was playing off that rivalry.

the fact that you had once owned a Z, and now own a G is awesome, best of both worlds. I visit the 350Z boards as often as I do this board and know you loved your Z and the people of Nor Cal who own Z's.

I feel as if we are one big family. whether you own a Z or a G is pointless, we all love our cars...

at first when I read your PM and your post in this thread, I thought you were joking or have a different sense of sarcastic humor. but it's apparent in your other posts that you were truly offended.

I still don't see where it is coming from, but regardless, I apologize.

i hope there is no bad blood...after all, I'd love the opportunity to take some of your money at one of the poker nights

again...i'm just trying to add some humor to my posts.

It's all good Vinh. Apology accepted, and let bygones be bygones.

 

Sorry guys, I posted the wrong setup of my front rim size and rear tire size on my previous post. Plus, I called my seller/friend about my offset. When I purchased my rims I didn't really ask my seller the sizes, I trusted him to make everything look good. So here are the correct setup figures:

Setup:

Wheels - Front = 19x9.5 Rear= 19x10.5
Tires - Bridgestone S-03, Front = 245/35/19 Rear = 275/35/19
Suspension - TEIN Basics 1" drop all around
Offset - Front = 26 Rear = 28

 

love the way they look tony.. i really wish i was at the meet to check them out in person..

maybe we should go grab something to eat.. hooters?? *nudge*
